Close-up of the equestrian Duke of Wellington statue in Glasgow city centre, with traffic cones balanced on the rider’s head and the horse’s head.

The paired cones echo one another above the rider and horse, while the dark metal surfaces and close framing lend the image a quietly theatrical character.
